THE SUPPORT GROUP (for one-shots, web-comics, and doing more things!)

Is this still happening or is Rofl really busy saving the Queen or some shit

If not, I'll ask bobo to put us artists in a sparring match type thing and set it til the end of the month :3

Sorry, sorry! This is still happening, just couple things happened. We'll still be going, it'll be up soon enough.

Should we talk about our projects too before we start?

I'm going to work on a webcomic I've wanted to continue for a while now. I actually drew the first ten pages about two years ago, but I wasn't sure about the title and some of the smaller details so didn't go further. I'm going to post those ten pages for feedback, and do at least three more before the deadline!

Good idea, Gregly!

I too, want to start a webcomic but I always backtrack or lose interest after a few pages. NOT THIS TIME, I actually have the first chapter written down and planned out. My goal for this month is to have it all thumbed out, at least 3 pages completely done, and a few pages sketched out.

I'm currently unemployed so this should be doable lol

I want to use this as an opportunity to practice things like coloured pages within time limits. I know I can draw, but my speed of working on colours is pitifully slow and inefficient. I've been too scared to work on colours in matches, so it's a good chance to experiment.

I originally drew the adventures of Skully and Lappy for the school's comics fanzine. So why not webcomics later?

This is gonna be for my travelogue comic zine about my adventures out west and back. Slice of life type stuff based on true events.

Mine will be pages for my current webcomic! Admittedly, when I submit it, there may be some context lost, but this should drive me to do more pages, a lot faster [peer pressure!].

I'll be working on my nickelodeon pitch, so it won't be a comic but I'll try and arrange the boards in a standard page format!

I've been trying to motivate myself to work on this pirate-themed webcomic for a year but right now the characters feel hollow and the story is full of holes, Im trying not to make a huge epic monster of a tale that takes 30 years to tell 1 page a week since this is a sort of adventure comedy but there needs to be SOME sort of story so i'm working on simplifying it.


And we're live! Thank you, Kevin!

Good luck to all my support groupers this month!

ok which stories should I tackle?

Cleopatra: A rich girl is trying to change herself as bet she can but dormant is a malicious, manipulative, vain persona that temps her.

SPN (Tentative Title): A boy finds out that he carries the power of darkness, he meets a girl who carries the power of light and together, they try to find a way to properly control their abilities while saving their town from monsters!

Cosplay Story: a farmtown boy moves to the city to find Anime fans but ends up befriending 3 cosplayers after they save him from getting jumped in a back alley

Lucha Libre: El Victor is a Lucha Libre legend but his status is about to catch up on him when he is invited to a small town that's overrun by mysterious creatures

I'll be working on my webcomic/book mixture, so I will be turning in more pages.

I will be doing a hybrid of pure text and comic, where most things will be in text form, I will be appending a lot with illustrations and some sequential arts to reinforce reveals, help make fast moments go fast and so on. I will be starting with a one-shot comic set in the world to test the 'technique'.
If I dream of impossible, should I forget it?

Oooh, we sharing? ok.

I've been grappling with doing slice of life/story based webcomickness for quite some time and finally decided if some of my favorite web comic artists can do both, so can I.

For the story based comic, I've got this suuuuper old comic idea I did back in high school which I think has some merit to rework.  A spunky elvish redhead with her willowy best friend whose called to a higher purpose. I have the story more or less mapped out, but its the ending that I'm stuck on. How to wrap it all up? I'm hoping just diving in and getting some pages out will help in figuring that out.


With 10 days left until this current cycle of Support Group is ending, I just wanted to say we'll have sign ups ready for the next incarnation and we're going to try something different with the next one to better understand the most effective way we can do this.

Choleric suggested that we try 2 2-weekers and see how it feels, so we'll do that and then determine which one feels better. We can also either start the next Support Group immediately this one is put up OR wait a week for feedback and then put up the next Support Group. Whichever you guys feel is better.

Either way, signs up are open for the next one now, so if you wanted in, now's a great time to join up.


EDIT: It's also worth mentioning that Bobo's Pulpito is currently accepting submissions, so this would be a terrific opportunity to work towards something. You all should really do something for it and you've got a motivator to help you along if you need it.

Not sure how much I would have ready in the first 2 weeker, but I will still put my name in for it anyway. I have been working on the revamp of my comic Shina and Roboface that I did last year for 24 hour comics day, so that's what I will probably keep working on. I think I have expanded on the comic so far by 12 pages for the first chapter but I want to rework some more.

Or I may work on a smaller idea first for something I wanted to do later in the year, or Panda Girl one of the three.

I have comic projects coming out my butt at the moment so please count me in on this.
sugoi

i hope this will be a complete regular event. i can join earliest at may but i think it might help me.

its a great idea so thanks for whoever got the idea and those who helped working on the concept.

As far as I can tell, this will be done every month for anyone who needs it.

i shall be there again.

Sign me up again!

2x2weeks is a no-go for me sadly, so I won't be signing for this round
If I dream of impossible, should I forget it?

Hey, we'll be starting round 2 of this soon, so if you want in, time to sign up!

I think I'd like to participate this time around, so count me in!
